Question:
Okay, so I know this has been 'tabbed' many times over in the Guitar Tabs area. However...I see tons of comments with people arguing over this and that not being the right chords and such. It's confusing as heck if I may say so, myself...especially when there's like 6 or 8 different version attempts of the same song.
There is a video here where the lead singer and guitarist are showing how to play it the way it is on the Casting Crowns cd.
Clearly it's a Capo on the second fret for this version of the song, as they themself have stated (but they've also used Capo 4, at some point).
This video goes really fast when it shows the chords themselves...and the fingerpicking that he's doing on the chords is pretty hard to tell exactly what he's playing. But I know a lot of you are gifted enough to figure it out by ear according what is visible.
So, would any of you nice people care to take a stab at tabbing out the fingerpicking and chord positions on this one (because we know for sure it's *right* to begin with, and there's nothing to really debate because it's the artists themselves)?
I could really use this song...but it's hard for me to figure out as a beginner. Thanks.
Answer:
I think I might be able to come up with something. Should I post it here or try to put it in the tabs section of the main site?
Answer:
If you want it soon you'd be better off posting it here, too. Or at least a link to it somewhere you might have it hosted. If you paste it into the reply box it tends to get fudged up.
Answer:
OK, I think I`ve got it now - I had to mess around with some HTML tags to get it to show up nicely (Sorry I had to put it in Courier, but that shows up a bit better too). I`ll try and see if I can submit it too, later.
Here’s the tab for the Casting Crowns song “Who Am I”. To play along with the CD, use these shapes and play with a capo on the 4th fret (key of B). For a more singable range, I’d suggest playing with capo on the 2nd fret (key of A).
The chords shown below are based around a basic C chord (x32010) moved up 2 frets, and just moving the bass note around as shown.
   G   C   Em  D  D/F#
e--x- -x- -x- -x- -x-
B--3- -3- -3- -3- -3-
G--0- -0- -0- -0- -0-
D--4- -4- -4- -4- -4-
A--x- -3- -2- -5- -x-
E--3- -x- -0- -x- -2-
For the verses, use the above shapes and fingerpick.
Intro:
G    C    Em    D x2
Verses:
G   D/F#   Em
D   C   D   C
(Repeat this for the second half of each verse)
Pre-chorus:
C    D    Em    D/F#
Em    D/F#    C    D
(switch to strumming at about the C)
For the chorus, bring out the pick and strum, and use standard chord shapes. Keep common tones on the B and high E strings.
G    D/F#    Em    D    C
D    C    D/F#    G
G    D/F#    Em    D    C
D    C
For the “I am Yours...” part at the end of the chorus...
-First time, repeat intro chords, back to finger-picking)
-Second time, there’s an instrumental piece. There’s a lot of chords,
and you have to be fast. (Listen to the CD for timing)
  Em  D
C  G/B  Am  G  C  D
C  G/B  Am  G/B  Am  G   Em  D
F  C  Cm  D
After the instrumental part, go back to pre-chorus. Same as above except for what is shown here.
                          D/F#  G  G/B  C
...”but because of who You are”............... (back to chorus)

Does that help?
Answer:
Bravo, thanks!!!!!
